VLC issues with BBC flv files

Postby nihao » 09 Jun 2014 12:54

When i record BBC shows with rtmpdump and save the flv to my hd and try to play the file with vlc afterwards, i get a few issues.

The file itself opened with a text editor reveals meta data at the top of the file like the shows name and the date the show aired.
VLC file info stays empty.
Even more annoying is that you can only play the file from the beginning . If you want to skip the news part or just want to hear a certain song again you can't.
If you just pause the already running show and resume it is ok, but if you try to jump to a specific place in the file you can't.
Dragon Player can do that.
